  • In this study low voltage Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) was utilized to eliminate high voltage PEO drawbacks such as high cost, dimensional deformation and porosity. Low voltage PEO produces a thin coating which causes low corrosion resistance. In order to solve such problem, 0.1~0.6M pyrophosphates were added in a bath containing 1.4M NaOH, and 0.35M Na2SiO3. 70 V PEO was conducted at 25℃ for 3 minutes. Chemical composition, morphology and corrosion resistance of the anodized coating were analyzed. The anodized film was composed of MgO, Mg2SiO4, and Mg2O7P2. The morphology of film showed appropriately dense structure and low porosity in the anodized layers. It is found that low voltage Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation in cooperation with phosphating treatment can provide a good corrosion protection for the AZ31B magnesium alloy.

  • We describe methods for depositing high temperature superconducting films on textured metal tapes by reactive co-evaporation (RCE). We discuss how RCE can be used to deposit on moving tape in a continuous fashion in a Garching-style process. Results are presented on films deposited by RCE at Los Alamos on IBAD-MgO textured tapes. The performance achieved, attaining over 500A/cm-width in self-field at 75.5 K, is competitive with the best results obtained by other processes for coated conductors. Tape production throughput is critical for the economics of the process and high deposition rates achieved in RCE are attractive for this. We present a detailed cost analysis model for HTS deposition using an RCE Garching process. The results indicate that HTS deposition can cost $<$5/kA{\cdot}m$ in a scaled up manufacturing environment.

  • The development of glucose biosensors has been attracting much attention because of their importance in monitoring glucose in the human body; such sensors are used to diagnose diabetes and related human diseases. Thanks to the high selectivity, sensitivity to glucose detection, and relatively low-cost fabrication of enzyme-immobilized electrochemical glucose sensors, these devices are recognized as one of the most intensively investigated glucose sensor types. In this work, ZnO nanofibers were synthesized using an electrospinning method with polyvinyl alcohol zinc acetate as precursor material. Using the synthesized ZnO nanofibers, we fabricated glucose biosensors in which glucose oxidase was immobilized on the ZnO nanofibers. The sensors were used to detect a wide range of glucose from 10 to 700 M with a sensitivity of $10.01nA/cm^2-{\mu}M$, indicating that the ZnO nanofiber-based glucose sensor can be used for the detection of glucose in the human body. The control of nanograins in terms of the size and crystalline quality of the individual nanofibers is required for improving the glucose-sensing abilities of the nanofibers.

  • We report on a simple and robust route to the spontaneous assembly of well-ordered magnetic nanoparticle superstructures by irreversible evaporation of a sessile single droplet of a mixture of a ferrofluid (FF) and a nonmagnetic fluid (NF). The resulting assembled superstructures are seen to form well-packed, vertically arranged columns with diameters of $5{\sim}0.7{\mu}m$, interparticle spacings of $9{\sim}2{\mu}m$, and heights of $1.3{\sim}3{\mu}m$ The assembled superstructures are strongly dependent on both the magnitude of magnetic field and the mixing ratio of the mixture. As the magnitude of the externally applied magnetic field and the mixing ratio of the mixture increase gradually, the size and interspacing of the magnetic nanoparticle aggregations decrease. Without an externally applied magnetic field, featureless patterns are observed for the ${\gamma}-Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle aggregations. The proposed approach may lead to a versatile, cost-effective, fast, and scalable fabrication process based on the field-induced self-assembly of magnetic nanoparticles.

  • Key agreement protocol is a fundamental protocol in cryptography whereby two or more participants can agree on a common conference key in order to communicate securely among themselves. In this situation, the participants can securely send and receive messages with each other. An adversary not having access to the conference key will not be able to decrypt the messages. In this paper, we propose a novel identity-based authenticated multi user key agreement protocol employing a symmetric balanced incomplete block design. Our protocol is built on elliptic curve cryptography and takes advantage of a kind of bilinear map called Weil pairing. The protocol presented can provide an identification (ID)-based authentication service and resist different key attacks. Furthermore, our protocol is efficient and needs only two rounds for generating a common conference key. It is worth noting that the communication cost for generating a conference key in our protocol is only O($\sqrt{n}$) and the computation cost is only O($nm^2$), where $n$ implies the number of participants and m denotes the extension degree of the finite field $F_{p^m}$. In addition, in order to resist the different key attack from malicious participants, our protocol can be further extended to provide the fault tolerant property.

  • ZnO shows a direct band gap of 3.37eV, large exciton binding energy (~60 meV), high oxidation ability, high sensitivity to many gases, and low cost, and it has been used in various applications such as transparent electrodes, light emitting diodes (LEDs), gas sensors and photocatalysts. Among these applications ZnO as photocatalyst has considerably attracted attention over the past few years because of its high activities in removing organic contaminants generated from industrial activities. In this research, ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by spray-pyrolysis method using the zinc acetate dihydrate as starting material at synthesis temperature of $900^{\circ}C$ with concentration varied from 0.01 to 1.0M. The physical and chemical properties of the synthesized ZnO nanoparticles were examined by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transformation Infrared (FT-IR), and UV-vis spectroscopy. The Miller indices of XRD patterns indicate that the synthesized ZnO nanoparticles showed a hexagonal wurtzite structure. With increased precursor concentration, a primary, secondary particle sizes of ZnO nanoparticles increased by 0.8 to $1.5{\mu}m$ and 15 to 35nm, and their crystallinity was improved. Methyleneblue (MB) solution ($1{\mu}M$) as a test comtaminant was prepared for evaluating the photocatalytic activities of ZnO nanoparticles synthesized in different precursor concentration. The results show that the photocatalytic efficiency of ZnO nanoparticles was gradually enhanced by increased precursor concentration.

  • 전기 물 분해 기술 중 주요 과제 중 하나는 귀금속의 Ir과 Ru 기반의 촉매를 대체할 수 있는 고성능, 저비용의 산소 발생 반응 (OER) 촉매를 개발하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 CoSO4와 Fe(NO3)3 수용액을 1차 가열 후 KNO3와 NaOH 추가 반응을 이용한 침전법을 이용하여 OER 촉매로 사용 가능한 역스피넬 구조의 약 44 nm 크기를 갖는 CoFe2O4 나노 입자를 합성하였다. CoFe2O4 나노 입자의 합성 시간을 조절하여 입자 및 결정립 크기를 제어하였다. CoFe2O4 나노 입자의 합성 시간이 6시간일 때, 높은 전도성과 전기 화학 표면적을 가졌다. 이 CoFe2O4 (6 h)는 전류 밀도 10 mA/㎠의 과전압 및 Tafel slope는 각각 395 mV 및 52 mV/dec으로 나타났다. 또한, 이 촉매는 10 mA/㎠에서 18시간 동안 우수한 내구성을 나타냈다.

  • SAW filter has been used in mobile communication device, bandpass filter and resonator for merits )f miniaturization and high reliability. Materials for substrate mainly used single crystal such as LiNbO$_{3}$, LiTaO$_{3}$, ZnO. In this study, it was attempted that LiNbO$_{3}$ was substituted for piezoelectric ceramics(PZT4, PZT5A and PZT8) which had simple fabrication process because fabrication of crystal is difficult and it's cost is high. SAW filters were fabricated by the photolithography on piezoelectric ceramics substrates in order to compare their characteristics with LiNbO$_{3}$'s. The experimental value of center frequency was compared with theoretical one. The average difference of center frequency was 3.7%. PZT8 showed the best bandwidth properties among them. It is considered that PZT8 has higher mechanical quality factor and propagation velocity than others.
